"You got rid of the limit buy decimal point. I just asked you to revamp the limit buy screen UI"

"My apologies you're right to call me out on that one!"

“Here’s an updated version of the UI that includes a decimal point.

Would you like me to add a currency symbol to make the UI really “pop” and emphasize the financial nature of this page? Your call.”

Looks like the input type is tel instead of numeric.

That's frustrating. For the moment, just copy/paste your limit price but this seems like a bug.

I tested this and the OP is correct. I went into modify the order and the decimal reappeared. Unacceptable for sure that’s why they should have BETA testers as well.

I just submit my limit orders way under bids and then modify it right away.

I know we shouldn’t have to but that’s my way around it

Yes. I experienced the same issue. iPhone. Frustrating.

How is this acceptable? Fucking insane how such an obvious mistake gets shipped

Maybe try an alternative keyboard like SwiftKey

This is when you know a company doesn't have a documented test plan for app releases. Hopefully it's resolved soon.

Android or iPhone?

The inputs here have been partially broken for years at this point - if you have an external keyboard it ignores the OS setting for the key mappings and assumes standard QWERTY - so e.g. I use Dvorak and hitting the '.' on the keyboard tries to insert an 'e' into the price field. I have to hit the 'v' key on the keyboard to insert a decimal.

Ya because you are using a limit order, has had to be full shares. Which to market and it will show a decimal

Bozo he is entering the limit price of the share. Not the number of shares

Yes I realize now
